Bigger pictures

[Jock Scot]

I wonder if you can assist, I have been posting pictures ,more or less successfully, for sometime now. I have a photobucket account etc.. Now, what I would like to do is publish slightly bigger pictures(to give better detail) than I do here already. How do I go about it? Advice PLEASE in words of one syllable and no technojargon.Is there a box to tick at photobucket?Is there a box to tick here too? If so where is it? Do you mind if I publish slightly bigger pictures? Thank you in advance.

Jock.

Hi Jock, This is very simple. Just upload a larger photo to photo bucket. You may need to check the options to ensure that they are not resizing your photos to a smaller image.

Er right! It may be simple to you! I THINK the pictures are being resized,how do I undo that? What options?Where? SIMPLE words please?

I think I can do that. If you are using photo bucket, there is a big blue bar that says "UPLOAD PICTURES". Under that is a small blue selections called "More Options"

You want to click on that and it brings up a box that allows you to choose the size of the photo. If you need more help, please PM me and I will send along screen shots as well.

Got it! Thank you so much. I will try an experiment on an oldish thread of mine, just to test the system.If I don't like it I will revert back to the old system. Once again,many thanks.

Sorry, I knew it was not going to be that easy! I have clicked on photbucket for the pictures to go up two sizes and the pictures look the same size to me. Just added more pixels?Not inches. Any ideas?

A thought! Ok, maybe I cannot make the old pictures on file at photobucket any bigger(inches)? Is that a possibillity? But, maybe if I alter the setting on the camera, will that alter the future picture size on screen?YES?NO?Should do------I think!

If the pictures have already been re-sized in Photobucket, then chances are increasing the size will just increase the size of the individual pixels and you will get a worse picture. What you need to do is take the largest picture you can with your camera, then downsize it.
